| Probably the BIGGEST littlest band to ever come out of Hollywood in the early 90's. The look was glam but the music was beyond lipstick and hairspray. There only Church Records release with a variety of styles and tip of your tongue riffs and lyrics. This is five star songwriting that was under exposed. Don't get me wrong this album has it's flaws(like it was never released on a major label and didn't get it's proper recognition). Too many strong points to list. Good luck finding this one. LOL

| I had this on cassette back in 89-90, but my car was stole, and it was actually IN the cassette player at the time. I have since had such a hard time getting ,y hands on this cd!! I have bid on e-bay (when it's there) up to $100, and still no luck!!

| This is truly one of THE best bands to ever hit Hollywood. It is truly a shame that they were never signed to a major label. I have been looking for this CD for the longest time, after mine was stepped on at a party, and have been forced to download it from Napster.

| 1993, I bought'i like it alot' in my favorite recordstore here in Belgium. I was 18 years old and going through some rough times. anyway, i listened to that album and it took me, and it still has a hold on me. This is the sort of album that will follow me for the rest of my life. Every song has a special meaning to me. 'forever you and i', 'chicago', teach ourselves to fly', 'the prettiest ones' are more than just cool songs. they can make me laugh or bring a tear to my eye. thank u.

| I love this cd. I had it back in the early 90's and my house was broken into and that was one of a few cd's stolen. Since i found it last year in a second hand store for $5 Australian, about 2 bucks US guys. Its a good all round production, the only fault is that these guys didnt make it big and never recorded anything else. As others said . has a glam style look but far advanced and much better song writing than others out of this era. 9 out of 10.

| I love this band! I have 'I Like It Alot' & 'Live @ the Coconut Teaszer' on cassette & still listen to it, to this day! I used to keep in touch w/ Dave Zink & finally got to see them live a couple times in FL back in '92 when they opened for Faster Pussycat! Oh, those were the days! There sound was like no other! When you get your hands on this, don't let it out of your sight!!

| I don't mean to sound rude, but this is not glam music. This is nowhere close to being glam. I've been collecting glam for years and I have never heard anything this bad.

| Although the band was lumped in with all the other Sunset bands there was definitley more than meets the eye with these guys. Sure their music bordered on the glam edge but they also added a kind of darker twist to their song writing. Songs such as "This Time Last Year" and "Generation" aren't exactly standard bublegum glam pop. A very talented bunch indeed who never got the chance to enter the big league "thanks" to a certain mister Cobain. A real shame!

| beautiful music...maybe not glam or anything because some of the songs had a deeper meaning...but just beautiful rock music.. i love Kenny's voice, hope things work out for him with jet 68 tomcat@dolfijn.nl

| No offence, but the deeper meaning doesn't make the songs sound better. The sound like a mix of REM, Toad the Wet Sproket, and early Live- just not as good. They are a bit too alternative sounding for me. I think these guys would have done better coming out 2 years later.

| Honestly Shane. I was hoping for a Pretty Boy Floyd, Erotic Suicide type vibe from this band and I never really heard it. I was expecting more from this band because of all the impressive reviews. I was terribly let down from this album, and in my opinion they really didn't sound to glam to me. But that's my opinion. But anyway keep rockin out people!!!

| I do not Like it a Lot is what this should be called I agree with richierocker not really the party vibe going on with this band more serious which is cool if that is what you are into. Bought this cd in the early nineties and sold it a few weeks later. Jay from Australia.

| The best music to ever come out of Hollywood. Whoever went to the Whisky on June 6th, knows that this band, after 10 years, still draws a HUGE crowd and has killer songs. Blackboard Jungle has a cool website with new pics and merchandise.Check it out on .... Blackboardjungle.net I have worn out several copies of this CD. It is a must for ALL !! Who knows, if we all ask, they might do a show again.. It's worth a shot!! BLACKBOARDJUNGLE.NET check it out !!

| I actually don't mind this disc. Very laid back, but quite enjoyable. 'Chicago' is a very enjoyable opener, 'River of love' is cool hard rock and 'Prettiest ones' is a very nice ballad. I guess overall it ain't that grand, and the vibe is pretty depressing, but it's okay for a few dollars. I still like it.

| I just recently bought an original copy of this CD after holding out for a long time. I originally didn't think this CD was that good, but after several spins it definitely grows on you. Chicago and Everybody Talk About are definitely the highlights on this CD. Definitely a rare indie worth picking up. Kinda reminds me of a mix between Jetboy and Faster Pussycat.

| I can't find any glam comparisons to this album. Not saying it's bad,....just not glam and definitely different to many of the comparisons given above. More just straight forward hard rock - even mellow at times.

| Too bad about these guys. If this album had come out just a couple years later, and they had a different image (or no image at all), they could have done something. There's still some sleaze-rock backwash here, but I hear a lot of metal-adjacent alt-rock as well. I hate to compare them to a band like Live (who I loathed back then, mostly for being overplayed and so fucking earnest), but Blackboard Jungle could have hung with that crowd. I could really hear a song like "Chicago" or "This Time Last Year" getting airplay in about 1994 or '95. These are mostly pretty good songs, with those two being the highlights, along with "Everybody Talk About," the title track and the neo-noir tale "California." And we all have somebody that we think of when we hear "An Old Friend." My version is a reissue of some sort, with several live bonus tracks from a reunion show, with what appears to be a small but diehard crowd. Cool, interesting little album.
